True. I'll go that route next time. I did return it because I got it from BB though. Didn't expect to be told my trade in credit was Gamestop saving me money.

Well Gamestop offered you 50% more, which regenerated you an additional $24 with the condition that you purchase said game.

$24 is greater than the $12 GCU saved you...so he wasn't wrong lol

I'm a confrontational guy in real life as much as I am behind the keyboard.

I mean he probably saved infinitely more than if he would have directly traded those games to Best Buy, though.

 

[Bombarded]

My go to excuse is "my loss is your gain"

That word doesn't mean what you think it means.

Best Buy values have sucked lately

Traded in an extra DS4 and CoD:BO3 to pay $2 for Uncharted. Between this and Overwatch, should be set until Black Friday.

No Mirror's Edge?

Anybody happen to know off the top of their head what the xb1 refurb fee is? My controller has a faulty left bumper button.

How much did you originally pay for the DS4 and BO3?

 

[chnandler_bong]

You didn't know GameStop money is greater than cash? Don't you know that people always say that they got *insert new game for free* and you ask them how, and they say they traded in a bunch of games. Because they obviously didn't pay anything for those games to begin with, so it was free!

In Texas GameStop money IS better than cash...

 

[Bobby's World]

They were free... $2 Uncharted 4 FTW

I did a search and haven't seen it mentioned, but a lot of the same games on the guaranteed $25 trade list are a guaranteed $35 trade towards Overwatch. Just going to return it or transfer the credit to another preorder and re-pre-order with another trade-in.

Edit:The $35 guaranteed credit offer is gone, I swear I just saw it, said it ended the 24th.

It wasn't $35. It was "trade X game and get $25 towards Overwatch"

 

[Moxieman]

It wasn't $35. It was "trade X game and get $25 towards Overwatch"

Thus making Overwatch $35. What a mess. Mea culpa.

 

[kube00]

My gf just picked up 4 $25 amazon GCs without issue, so those continue to work.

Yep I returned Doom and bought 3 kindle gcs. NP buying them with credit

Dat sweet no sales tax. 8.25% savings on things I can't get with GCU.

 

[cg8889]

Still haven't decided on that one but could probably wait on that. Blood and Wine expansion for Witcher 3 also needed to be included in summer gaming.

Colorado Springs?

 

[dav2sil]

Just got a notification on the app with the best deal gamestop has had in a while. 40% off a large pizza at papa johns.......

 

[AndyD33]

At some point I had a 10% off used with store pick up coupon show up on one of my accounts. Expires 5/28

 

[beatums]

40% off at papa johns menu price is still 20% more than any other place.

Plus they'll sell you a 12 inch pizza with 4 inches of it being crust.

I have a couple in some emails, but they didn't say when they expired. Thanks for the HU.

Same here. Did all the other coupons expire already? That's the only one I have ATM

 

[Vigilante]

Yes, the $xx off coupons for R6 Siege, AC: Syndicate, and Just Dance 2016 had a 5/22 expiration date.

What about Colorado Springs?

 

[coolrust]

quick question guys, do i need the mini usb to trade in the ps4?

 

[Deader2818]

yes

 

[Hereck82]

No you don't

 

[blackbeard4886]

yes

That's funny my used PS4 I got last summer didn't come with that.

 

[irishsoccermbw]

Just got an 8% ebay bucks email.  Good for 8 hours.

 

[Deader2818]

No you don't

You do. Power cord, HDMI, Console, Controller and controller charge cable are needed.

 

[Deader2818]

That's funny my used PS4 I got last summer didn't come with that.

Then I would have gone back and got a cable.

Maybe

Well I traded mine on sat and they didn't ask for it, guess I got lucky.

Minimum purchase is $100.

I ordered 3 refurb xbones around christmas. IIRC none of them came with the charge cable.

EDIT: I AM DUMB IGNORE ME

He's talking about ps4, x1 doesn't have charge cables packaged in they have batteries.

 

[Pengy99]

oh true my bad. I forget they don't actually come with the plug and charge thingdo. Just remembered having to scrounge up a cable to sync the controllers since they didn't sync without it.

Can't, no ignore button to be found.

 

[irishsoccermbw]

Minimum purchase is $100.

The threshold is usually $100.

I can't believe so many people sleep on ebay GC rolling. Take today for example. I rolled my usual $200 so I get back $16 in eBay bucks, enough gamestop PUR points for a $5 off used item coupon and $2 back via ebates (or another cash back site). It's certainly worth the $20 or so bucks for me to stop on my way home from work to grab another eBay GC from GS...maybe it's just me though.

 

[YawnAmuroYawn]

It's not just you. But this isn't a place where people are looking for deals...you're looking for cheapassgamer.com a few years ago.

Works great until PayPal bones you over with a GC ban. :Wall:

 

[irishsoccermbw]

Works great until PayPal bones you over with a GC ban.

I've been doing it for 6-7 months now. If you keep it in moderation, my self imposed limit is $200 per ebay buck bonus cycle (to clarify I mean each time they do a bonus, i.e. this 8% buck bonus period), you should be fine. There are people on SD complaining about the ban who were trying to purchase thousands of dollars of GC at a time. Just have to use your head.
